Low Risk Betting for ECs

[JimmieB]

Got this progression from another forum, it’s used with EC bets. I’ve been playing it with a game BR of 10 units, therefore, 100 units means you have 10 games â€" hours of fun! A is game won when I’m +5 units, and, as already stated, game is lost at -10 units. A session is won/lost when I’ve won 5 games/lost 2 games, whichever comes first. If you want, you can always double the units played after a losing a game to recoup your losses....

I guess the decision it what EC system to use with it.....?

BR   Bet Amount   
15 units   Game Won   
12 units   3 units   
10 units   2 units   Starting bet
9 units   1 unit   
8 units   2 units   
7 units   2 units   
6 units   1 unit   
5 units   2 units   
3 units   2 units   
2 units   1 unit   
1 unit   1 unit   
0 units   Game lost

I don't understand.

How many units do you have for each session?
Are you flat betting or using progression?

Is there any specific bet selection?

Personally, I would have a session BR of 20 units, meaning I could have 2 games with a 10 unit BR for each game. My session target is to win 5 games before I lose 2, for example I win games 1 & 2, I'm 10 units up, lose game 3, I'm level, win games 4, 5, & 6, I've won 5 games in total, meaning I've won the session, and I'm 15 units up. Also, as I stated in my first post, you could double your unit stake after a lose, in this case, I would need a BR of 30 units, an example would be lose game 1, I'm down 10 units, win game 2 with double units, I've won back the 10 units lost in game 1, I'm now level, I win games 3, 4, & 5, meaning I'm 15 units up, lose game 6, losing 10 units, session is over as I've lost 2 games before I won 5, however, I'm still 5 units up. If I hadn't increased my bet in game 2, I would have broken even for the session.

As the title states it's low risk, and you can set your own session targets, in my opinion, you can have quite a bit of time at the table, and hopefully win a small amount of money with a relatively small BR, therefore, it will not suit everyone, I would say this is a more recreational approach

Regarding EC bet selection, this is your own choice, I've been betting the last colour, however, if I get 3 losses in row, meaning the colours are "zig-zaging", I wait for this to end before starting betting again.

I hope this helps

You can lose 6 straight bets on EC without even breaking a sweat.  It should happen about once every 64 spins.  Starting with 10 units and deducing the recommended units elite you out to wiggly,  imho. This doesn't seem low risk to me.

Sorry, the low risk referred to the amount of BR. Having played around with it for a bit, you tend to find yourself playing in between the +2 & -5 units meaning you are still in the game then you hopefully hit a 4 or 5 streak of the same colour possibly followed by a streak of 3 or 4 of the opposite colour.

I played a game today which lasted 48 spins, I had to pause betting once after 3 losses, biggest draw down was -9 units, however, towards the end got a run of 6 blacks in a row, followed by several shorter same colour streaks, getting me to my +5 units target.

Ref losing 6 EC bets in a row, of course you can - quite easily, however, if I lose 3 in a row, I pause and wait for the run to end which have meant more losses, then begin betting again, also, as well as losing 6 in a row, you can also win 6 in a row.

I'm fairly new to roulette, hence the post as it's good to get other opinions.

Please no nasty comments along the lines of "you can tell he's new to roulette if posting this cr**"

Thanks Jimmmie B for your posting. This EC betting also works on H/Low, Odd/Even right?

[JimmieB]

Yes, you can use any EC bet.
